Christmas Bells Songtext
von Jonathan Larson

Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are ringing
Christmas bells are singing
How time flies when compassion dies

No sleigh bells, no candy canes
No yule log, no tinsel
No holly, no hearth
No "Santa Claus is coming"
′Cause Santa Claus ain't coming
No room at the Holiday Inn, oh no
And it′s beginning to snow

How about a fur in perfect shape
Owned by an MBA from uptown?
I got a tweed broken in by a greedy
Broker who went broke and then broke down


You don't have to do this
Hush your mouth, it's Christmas
I do not deserve you, Angel
Give, give (wait)
All you do (what′s on the floor?)
Is give, give me some way (let′s see some more)
To show (no, no, no, oh no)
How you've touched me so
Kiss me, it′s beginning to snow

She said, "Would you light my candle?"
Then she put on a pout
And she wanted you to take her out tonight? (Right)
She got you out

She was more than okay
But I pushed her away
It was bad, I got mad
And I had to get her out of my sight
There, that's her (Maureen?)
Mimi (woah)
I should go home, it′s beginning to

Follow the man, follow the man
With his pockets full of the jam
Follow the man, follow the man (got any D, man?)
Follow the man, follow the man (got any C, man?)
Got any X? Any smack? Any horse?
Any joogie boogie boy? Any blow?


Hey (hey)
I just wanna say
I'm sorry for the way (forget it)
I blew up
Can I make it up to you? (How?)
Dinner party? (That′d do)

Hey, lover boy, cutie pie
You steal my client, you die
You didn't miss me, you won't miss her
You′ll never lack for customers
Wish me luck, Alison, the protest is on

(Got any C, man?) L.L. Bean, Geoffrey Beene
Burberry zip-out lining
(Got any D, man?) Mark, this is Mimi
Hi, she′ll be dining with us
(Got any B, man?) here's a new arrival
That is an ounce

(Got any crack?) hats, dats, bats, that′s my coat
(Got any X?) we give discounts
(Got any C, man?) I think we've met
Let′s get a better one, it's a sham
(Got any D, man?) that′s what he said
I said it's a gram

But she's a thief
(Got any B, man?) but she brought us together
Which investor′s coming?
(Got any crack?) I′ll take the leather
(Got any X?) your father? Damn
(Got any C, man?) Let's go to the lot

Maureen′s performing
Who's Maureen? His ex
(But I am over here)
I should tell you, I should tell you
Let′s not hold hands yet (is that a warning?)
I just need to take it slow
I should tell you, I should tell you
I should tell you, I should tell you
I should tell you, I

And it's beginning to
And it′s beginning to
And it's beginning to
Joanne, which way to the stage?
Snow
